Resumen |
In 1997 a critical accident occurred at the Russian Federal Nuclear Centre in the town of Sarov, about 400 km east of Moscow. The accident happened in a routine manipulation of the components of an assembly of highly enriched uranium. The overexposed man, a skilled technician, died 66h later from the effects of his exposure, despite prompt and intensive medical management. This report describes the immediate response to the emergency, the medical management of the patient, the various technical aspects of the accident, including the actions taken to return the facility to a safe condition, and the lessons to be learned from this accident. |
